Grady's First Christmas

Posted on Jan. 19, 2007 at 10:25 AM - Post Comment

This Christmas we got to celebrate at home!  Grady's Grandma Conte and Papa Gino and Grandma and Grandpa Schmidt all came to visit.  We had a fabulous, festive time!  We made a Christmas Eve dinner which Grady was polite enough to sleep through and a nice Christmas morning brunch.  Grady was quite a spoiled little boy, but that was mostly the grandparents' fault!

The day before Christmas Eve, Grandma Conte had just arrived and could not wait to hold Grady!

On Christmas Eve, hanging with Daddy:

After dinner, Santa came to visit!  He came right up the front walk:

Then he held Grady while we all sang

And Grady got to shake his hand

On Christmas morning we got up early and Grady went right for his stocking .  This toy was inside his little stocking (he had several).

Dancing around since he was SO excited it was Christmas morning at last!

Pictures of all the gifts (mostly for the G-Man)

Look at the little red wagon!

We opened a bunch of gifts, had brunch, and then Grady was ready to open more gifts!  But first, he had to put on his dressy Christmas outfit.

Whoa!  All those are for me!?

Grady got a Curious George that was bigger than him!

He got several "Baby's First Christmas" ornaments.  This beautiful one was from Grandma and Grandpa Schmidt

He also got a fire engine!
